I had enough fuel to divert to Florida with more than legal reserves My primary concern would be the fatigue factor. There is no shame in going to an alternate and paying for an Uber ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I could catch an Uber back to PA from Florida. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I used my first Uber at The Summit. Other stuff I learned on MS! what is the usual number of approaches one tries before going elsewhere? Any allowances for not flying the approach well and going missed, vs. the weather being below mins... Back in the day, i couldn't maintain recency enough to fly approaches in Imc (comfortably at other airports) Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsxrpilot Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I'll let the KFC150 shoot the approaches until it gets tired and then we'll go somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
